European Shipbuilding (continued) 2,000 meters of rail length on three decks to the Railship Group's total.

The Group now operates three ships with a total of 5,600 meters of rail.

The ship, powered by a Wartsila

Diesel propulsion plant, operates on the Travemunde to Hanko, Finland route.

Schichau Seebeckwerft, like other

West German shipyards such as

Lindenau, Meyer Werft and Blohm + Voss, has been very successful in obtaining complex conversion work.

One such project was the conversion of the former landing craft Jaeger in to a modern surimi factory pro- cessing ship for Oceantrawl of Hom- er, Alaska. Renamed the Northern

Jaeger, the vessel has an overall length of 336 feet, breadth of 51 feet, depth to upper deck of 36 feet and draft of 19 feet. She is powered by two medium-speed Krupp MaK 8M453 C main engines, rated at 3,218 horsepower each, working via reduction gearing on a propeller ar- ranged in a nozzle.

The Northern Jaeger now fea- tures accommodations in a three- story deckhouse located on the elon- gated fo'c'sle deck. A water treat- ment with a freshwater capacity of 400 tons per day was added, along with horizontal freezers and other equipment used in the processing of surimi.

Wilton-Fijenoord Performs

Ferry Repairs

Strategically situated in the mid- dle of the Rotterdam port area, the gateway to Europe, Dutch ship- repairer Wilton Fijenoord recent- ly received contracts to repair the ferries Princesse Maria-Esmeralda and Reine Astrid, both operated in cross-Channel service by Regis des

Transports Maritimes. The ferries

Dorio Ferry, operated by P&O

Steam Navigation, and St. Nicholas of the Sealink fleet are also in the

Netherlands yard for repairs.

Some other vessels recently call- ing at the yard for repair work include the the 256,699-ton tanker

Esso Languedoc, for alongside re- pairs, the Japanese refrigerated car- go vessel Kasuga Reefer for voyage repairs and the Paicific-Gulf Ma- rine RO/RO vessel Nosac Ranger.

C.H. Stapel, deputy managing director of Wilton-Fijenoord, be- lieves that current trends indicate that European shipyards will be among the leaders in the world ship- repair sector. "On one hand," said Mr. Stapel, "the aging commercial fleet and the tendency to have older vessels in operation longer have no doubt had a spin-off (effect) to the yards, whereas on the other hand Euro- pean yards are slowly catching up with those in the Far East in terms of price and turn-around times." 8 Maritime Reporter/Engineering News
